Speaker Reviews and Comments

Linda Larson’s enthusiasm for traveling through gardens captivates her audience as she shares her experiences and wonderful slides/pictures of some of the most interesting gardens throughout the world. Traveling through gardens presents a different way to experience adventure. Engaging, humorous and delightful presenter. And did I say enough about her and her husband’s photography, must say it again… pictures are beautiful.

Linda was absolutely fantastic and engaging! Through her presentation about her favorite world gardens she was able share her enjoyment and love of gardens and travel with every person in the room. Everyone walked away from the presentation wanting to go on our own garden adventure.

Very engaging and informative presentation. Not only do you become informed about the voice and energy of trees, you learn how to become an advocate.

Linda recently spoke at our local garden club in Sun Lakes, AZ and shared her wonderful presentation of “The Art of the Garden”. I have seen many of Linda’s presentations and each one is unique and extremely interesting. She is one of those speakers who will keep you engaged throughout the entire program. I have left every one of Linda’s presentations with new knowledge and an increased admiration for her dedication and professionalism.

Linda Larson knows her stuff and knows how to talk about it. She is engaging, warm and witty as well as knowledgeable. I have heard her speak twice now, and loved enjoyed both presentations immensely!

Linda is a wonderful speaker that took our garden club, Weeders, along with her as she traveled all over the world visiting beautiful gardens. Linda is interesting, her program is very original and fun. We will definitely invite her back ….

Linda gave a wonderfully ethereal presentation to our garden club recently entitled The Art of Gardening. All enjoyed the visuals and the talk. In fact, several people have come up to me to praise Linda’s presentation.

18 January 2018

Linda’s Garden presentation was very interesting, inspiring and enjoyable. Just hearing her presentation was the next best thing to actually being there at the various National Gardens as well as International Gardens

Linda, thank you for being a Traveling Gardener and for sharing all these beautiful gardens and their histories with us.

With appreciation,

Linda presented “The Art of the Garden” at Weeders Garden Club today. This was my third time to hear her…each time a different gardening topic. She always uses beautiful photographs that she and her husband have taken at gardens around the world to illustrate her points. Linda is an inspiring speaker (and gardener), humorous and informative. Don’t miss an opportunity to hear one of her presentations.

Linda Larson is one of the best speakers our garden club has had. She moved from one section of her talk to the next with such ease so it was easy to follow. Her command of the material was excellent. Her power point was very well done with wonderful photos.

14 November 2017

Linda Larson spoke to Laguna Beach Garden Club last week, sharing her travelogue of gardens across the world. I love to travel and visit any gardens along the way, so I took 2 pages of notes. The garden spots range from England, to New Zealand, Australia, Italy, Canada, & many states in our country. Excellent program & excellent speaker.

6 December 2017

Ms Larson spoke at the Laguna Beach Garden Club in October.Her slides were gorgeous and her presentation lively and polished. Saw New Zealand gardens I would never see even if I should make the trip.

2 April 2017

I wanted to comment on todays speaker.

I think this is perhaps the most polished,

professional speaker in the 3 yrs since I

have been involved. Kudos!

Excellent presentation to our Master Gardeners Group. What a delight to see and learn essential elements for a garden and to think about ways to incorporate in my own garden. It was like listening to visual poetry. Thanks

25 March 2017

Linda is a true professional. She is very prepared. She has a great presentation. I always look forward to her programs. Awesome photos too.

17 March 2017

Art in the Garden – beautiful slides,

interesting commentary – would like to see it again

12 March 2017

Wonderful information and new ideas

Kudos to Linda

11 March 2017

Kudos to Linda Larson for her wonderful presentation “The Art of Garden Design.” When a speaker uses their delivery to model the very ideas (art, heart and the creative process) they are sharing, the audience’s learning is more profound because the speaker becomes a model. Linda Larson reminds us that just as gardening can be a work of art, similar approaches apply to the design and delivery of a creative presentation. Only the tools used to design different kinds of art differ. Linda’s main tools are “wandering, wondering and noticing” and she does a terrific job of documenting the results.

10 March 2017

In addition to stunning visuals, Mrs. Larson added quotations from well known and lesser known writers/poets. Beautiful pictures and words. Also, she gave me a feeling of confidence that I could try the projects and tips she recommends. From her years of personal gardening and world travels to observe and photograph gardens, it was a program to experience both the practical and aesthetic side of the gardening world.

4 March 2016

At the Northwest Flower and Garden show this presentation was a confirmation of the beauty and worth of trees around the world. The photos along with Linda’s words were a treat!
